MANA Neighborhood Watch Alert!!! AUG 31, 2012 AUG 31st Neighbor on Fox Hills: There were multiple car break ins on Fox Hills Drive and Harrington on Thursday night/Friday morning. According to the police officer who took the report, several of them, were locked and had security systems. It appears the thieves must have some sort of device to circumvent car security systems. Out of my car they took they took some change, 2 GPS devices and chargers. There was nothing else of value in the car but they ransacked the trunk as well.
Neighbor on Medlock: They ransacked my car even left my light on, back door open, an every console left opened, but I don't have any valuables in my car. So luckily nothing of value was taken. Happened between 230-7 am. Facebook post: Car break ins at the 2700 block of Harrington. We called the police and filed our reports.Facebook post: There was another break in yesterday morning 3 doors down from us at 2318 Hunting Valley. 3 girl grad students had the rental broken into and their bedrooms trashed .

Medlock had a very informative Neighborhood Watch meeting on August 16th with Ms. Hightower (Public Education Specialist for the Center Precinct) and Officer Anderson from DeKalb County Police. Ms. Hightower ran through a series of questions that had been submitted. Several handouts were distributed at the meeting that are posted on the Neighborhood Watch Page.
Notes from the meeting are available on the website at medlockpark.org Thank you to Cathy Quinones for taking great notes at the meeting and for the fantastic job she does managing the website! Neighbor on Desmond: My house was broken into during the day between 9:30 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. on Friday, August 17th. The burglars took a laptop computer, jewelry, a radio and medication. They must have been in a hurry because they left flat screen TVs and other things. A police report was filed. They entered from the back door (probably using a credit card). My deadbolt wasn't easy to use because the door had swollen. Needless to say - that is fixed. I am going to get an alarm system. There were no cars in the driveway. All the drawers in the bedrooms were pulled out. Correction: The Neighborhood Watch Alert Email sent on AUG 17th stated that there was a Robbery on Willivee. This alert was for a Burglary, not a Robbery.
